Family + Child + Maternity + Newborn

Based out of Richmond, Virginia

Hey there! I am so glad you found me and the CHP family. I am a lover of a lot of things and a hater of few. Some of the things that make me the happiest are my handsome husband, Matt, my two sons [ahem, my biggest adventures] Casey and Ryan, and anything chocolate...or a Wawa sub, or chocolate...or a full Chick-Fil-A order...or chocolate...Ok, I have some [a lot of] weaknesses, but I've hit 30 which means I'm cool with it. My guys are 15 months apart so busy, hilarious, and crazy describe most of my days at home with them and I absolutely wouldn't change it for the world! My approach to photography [and life] is relationship-centered, because the CHP client family & this little business of mine is an extension of my own family + part of my wildest dreams. So if you're coming along for the ride, we should totally be friends too.

it is all about relationships, baby.

ABOUT

it all started with my camera.

My heart for photography has been with me since a very young age. I loved taking pictures and waiting for my mom to take them to the kodak storefront and anxiously await the days it took to go pick up my flimsy, little paper envelope of pictures. And after a lifetime of upgrading my cameras and shooting for myself, in 2010 I decided to start CHP to bridge the gap between my love for people, children, and families, and my inherited love for creativity.
The CHP family includes my clients. My clients quickly become friends, and many feel like family. I am capturing some of the most important moments in a growing family's life, and I believe that in order to do that authentically, I have to really know you. That process has turned my business into an extension of my family and I can't wait to talk to you about coming along for the ride with us!

It took me a long time and a lot of invested hours in my own education and business to learn how to create a successful and thriving business. I adore my time mentoring others in basic photography start-up and helping others get out of automatic and learn to use their D-SLR in manual mode to create amazing images. I have helped bloggers, start-up photographers, and even moms and dads who simply want to take better pictures of their everyday lives.
